When I received the LeapReader, I was a bit worried that my autistic five year-old wouldn't be able to to understand how to use it fully. I was pleasantly surprised when he grabbed it, turned it on and dove right into a book like he had used the LeapReader for years. His favorite feature is the ability to store music on it, as music is something he is drawn to. We are working on letters and writing in his therapies and I love the paper that came with the pen to write and practice tracing on. Having the guidelines there to work on his letters is wonderful and being able to use something he views as a toy to sneak in some extra therapy time makes me one very happy mom. I do wish the memory was a bit larger as I can see him filling this up with all of his music, leaving little room for the books I want him to work on, but I'm sure we can make do for now. Another thing I love is how it's rechargeable. We go through batteries like they are nothing with toys these days, so it's refreshing to have a toy that is rechargeable, cutting down on waste and costs of batteries. All in all this is a great toy for any kid, but especially helps my autistic son.

Let me start by saying that I love the idea of this product, and my daughter LOVED her Leap Reader, using it almost daily. (My older son had a Tag Reader which he also loved.) She got it for Christmas last year and by April the thing stopped working, conveniently after the 3-month warranty. After checking forums online, the defect seems to be common and there appears to be no fix last time I checked. So it basically lasted for 4 months. Now I have all these books, and we can't use them, and I don't trust that a new one will last any longer. This thing would be fantastic, if only it worked.

I bought this for my boy when he was 2 years old only, he had learnt alot with the reading books, activity books, he specially like the book with dinosaurs it is so informative I myself enjoy reading them with the pen, I just dont wait to get a new one when its out. Great idea and great product for the kids to learn with fun.

Although they are only 3 my daughter and niece love this product; I purchased it in error as I meant to get the Jr version, but so glad I did. This version allows them to practice writing which they love and the learn to read stories feature all their favorite characters.

I purchased the LeapReader from Toy r us as a gift for my 5 year old daughter. We love with the LeapReader. My daughter happily carries around her pen listening to the songs and reading a books.For the first few days she played with the sample book. I would recommend purchasing an additional book so the child has something else to read in full.

Ordered it for my granddaughter. Even though she is only 3, it is a great way to learn and lots of fun for her too. Has a good many options as far as reading, hearing words and sounds and writing too. Very pleased with my purchase!
